The Vampire Diaries Panel at Paleyfest 2012 (#TVD)

Event: Paleyfest 2012 – The Vampire Diaries Panel

Date: Saturday, March 10, 2012 – 7:00PM PST

Location: Saban Theatre – Beverly Hills, CA

To say I was excited to attend The Vampire Diaries panel at Paleyfest is an understatement. Being a fan of a show and then having the opportunity to see some of your favorite cast members up close is a thrill! Being able to see their sense of humor and personalities, aside from their characters, there isn’t anything better for a fan (except maybe to touch Ian Somerhalder or have him put his arm around you when you take a photo with him and confess your unquenchable lust…)

Ian Somerhalder (pucker up!)

Ahem, I digress. Sadly, I did NOT get a picture or autograph. The stampeding crowd scared the wits out of me so I left wanting to keep all my limps attached.

And one of the highlights of the evening (and there were plenty) for me is finding out about Matt Davis and his fanfiction. Find out more through his alter ego @ErnestoRiley

I will tell you that Julie Plec is adorable! I love her enthusiasm for the show and to see how much she cares about the characters.

Judy Manning

Dream chaser extraordinaire! Judy tends to be a tad sarcastic and kind of goofy! She is an avid admirer of all things supernatural, paranormal, celestial and mystical. She loves to read, write, and watches way too much TV. She enjoys many genres of film and music (and let's be honest, most music from the 80s). She also has a wicked sweet tooth. Cupcakes beware.
